NOTES
TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JANUARY
31, 2025
Note
1: Unaudited Interim Financial Statements
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. It is suggested that
these unaudited condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company’s April 30, 2024 annual report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. Operating results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative
of the results for any other quarter or for the full year.
Accounting
Estimates — The preparation of these condensed financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions including
the carrying value of assets. The estimates and assumptions result in approximate rather than exact amounts.
Significant
Accounting Policies — The significant accounting policies used in preparation of these condensed financial statements are disclosed
in our Annual Report, and there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the nine months ended
January 31, 2025.
Purchase
of Transferrable Tax Credits – In September 2024, pursuant to transferability provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act of
2022, the Company executed an agreement to purchase a tax credit of $ 3,431,000 created by solar energy projects qualifying under Internal
Revenue Code Section 48 (the “Solar Tax Credit”) in exchange for consideration of $ 2,917,000 , resulting in a total gain on
federal Solar Tax Credit of $ 514,000 . This tax credit is available to offset income tax payments for the Company’s 2025 fiscal
year and for up to the prior four fiscal years. Once the amount of the current federal income tax due is known, amendments will be made
to the prior fiscal years until the total credit has been used. As of January 31, 2025, this is shown as a receivable of $ 2,375,000 .
For
the three and nine months ended January 31, 2025, a gain on Solar Tax Credit of $ 95,000 and $ 468,000 has been recognized in our condensed
statements of operations, respectively.
Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncements — In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic280): Improvements
to Reportable Segment Disclosures . The new guidance is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily through
enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendments are effective retrospectively for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is in the process of evaluating
the impact that the adoption of this ASU will have to the financial statements and related disclosures, which is not expected to be material.
In
December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Improvements to Tax Disclosures (Topic 740) , to enhance the transparency and decision
usefulness of income tax disclosures through changes to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. This guidance is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this
new accounting guidance on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
In
November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures
(Subtopic 220-40) Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires public business entities to disclose additional information
about certain expenses in the notes to the financial statements. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after
December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating
the impact of adopting this new accounting guidance on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

2: Investments
The
Company has investments in publicly traded equity securities, state and municipal debt securities, real estate investment trusts, and
money markets. The investments in debt securities, which include municipal bonds and bond funds, mature between August 2025 and December
2050. The Company uses the average cost method to determine the cost of equity securities sold with any unrealized gains or losses reported
in the respective period’s earnings. Unrealized gains and losses on debt securities are excluded from earnings and reported separately
as a component of stockholder’s equity. Dividend and interest income are reported as earned.
As
of January 31, 2025 and April 30, 2024, investments consisted of the following:

Marketable
securities that are classified as equity securities are carried at fair value on the balance sheets with changes in fair value recorded
as an unrealized gain or (loss) in the statements of income in the period of the change. Upon the disposition of a marketable security,
the Company records a realized gain or (loss) on the Company’s statements of income.
The
Company evaluates all marketable securities for other-than-temporary declines in fair value, which are defined as when the cost basis
exceeds the fair value for approximately one year. The Company also evaluates the nature of the investment, cause of impairment and number
of investments that are in an unrealized position. When an “other-than-temporary” decline is identified, the Company will
decrease the cost of the marketable security to the new fair value and recognize a real loss. The investments are periodically evaluated
to determine if impairment changes are required. As a result of this standard, there were no impairment losses recorded for the quarters
ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For the year-to-date numbers, there were no impairment losses recorded for the nine-month
period ended January 31, 2025, while management recorded an impairment loss of $ 22,000 for the nine-month period ended January 31, 2024.
13
The
Company’s investments are actively traded in the stock and bond markets. Therefore, either a realized gain or loss is recorded
when a sale occurs. For the quarter ended January 31, 2025, the Company had sales of equity securities which yielded gross realized gains
of $ 424,000 and gross realized losses of $ 76,000 . For the same period, sales of debt securities did not yield any gross realized gains,
but gross realized losses of $ 7,000 were recorded. For the nine- months ended January 31, 2025, the Company had sales of equity securities
which yielded gross realized gains of $ 1,070,000 and gross realized losses of $ 159,000 . For the same nine-month period, sales of debt
securities did not yield any gross realized gains, but gross realized losses of $ 20,000 were recorded. During the quarter ending January
31, 2024, the Company recorded gross realized gains and losses on equity securities of $ 116,000 and $ 84,000 , respectively, while sales
of debt securities did not yield any gross realized gains, but gross realized losses of $ 14,000 were recorded. During the nine-month
period ending January 31, 2024, the Company recorded gross realized gains and losses on equity securities of $ 329,000 and $ 362,000 , respectively.
For the same nine-month period last year, sales of debt securities did not yield any gross realized gains, but gross realized losses
of $ 22,000 were recorded. The gross realized loss numbers include the impaired figures listed in the previous paragraph.
The
following tables show the investments with unrealized losses that are not deemed to be “other-than-temporarily impaired”,
aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position as
of January 31, 2025 and April 30, 2024, respectively.

Municipal
Bonds
The
unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in municipal bonds were caused by interest rate increases. The contractual terms
of these investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost of the investment. Because
the Company has the ability to hold these investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider
these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired as of January 31, 2025 and April 30, 2024.
Marketable
Equity Securities and REITs
The
Company’s investments in marketable equity securities and REITs consist of a wide variety of companies. Investments in these companies
include growth, growth income, and foreign investment objectives. The individual holdings have been evaluated, and due to management’s
plan to hold on to these investments for an extended period, the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily
impaired as of January 31, 2025 and April 30, 2024.

6: Retirement Benefit Plan
On
January 1, 1998, the Company adopted the George Risk Industries, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan is a
defined contribution savings plan designed to provide retirement income to eligible employees of the Company. The Plan is intended to
be qualified under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. It is funded by voluntary pre-tax and Roth (taxable)
contributions from eligible employees who may contribute a percentage of their eligible compensation, limited and subject to statutory
limits. Employees are eligible to participate in the Plan when they have attained the age of 21 and completed one thousand hours of service
in any plan year with the Company. Upon leaving the Company, each participant is 100 % vested with respect to the participants’
contributions while the Company’s matching contributions are vested over a six-year period in accordance with the Plan document.
Contributions are invested, as directed by the participant, in investment funds available under the Plan. Matching contributions by the
Company of approximately $ 14,000 and $ 15,000 were paid during each quarter ending January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Likewise,
the Company paid matching contributions of approximately $ 44,000 and $ 45,000 during each nine-month period ending January 31, 2025 and
2024, respectively.
Note
7: Fair Value Measurements
The
carrying value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair value
due to their short-term nature. The fair value of our investments is determined utilizing market-based information. Fair value is the
price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants
at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, which are required to be recorded at
fair value, we consider the principal or most advantageous market in which we would transact and the market-based risk measurements or
assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and credit
risk.
US
GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy
gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and
the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The levels of the fair value hierarchy under US GAAP are described
below:
Level
1
Valuation
is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.
Level
2
Valuation
is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets
that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.
Level
3
Valuation
is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions
reflect our own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques
include use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.
17
Investments
and Marketable Securities
As
of January 31, 2025 and April 30, 2024, our investments consisted of money markets, publicly traded equity securities, real estate investment
trusts (REITs) as well as certain state and municipal debt securities. Our marketable securities are valued using third-party broker
statements. The value of the investments is derived from quoted market information. The inputs to the valuation are generally classified
as Level 1 given the active market for these securities, however, if an active market does not exist, which is the case for municipal
bonds and REITs, the inputs are recorded as Level 2.
Fair
Value Hierarchy
The
following tables set forth our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and a non-recurring basis by level
within the fair value hierarchy. As required by US GAAP, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest
level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The
following discussion should be read in conjunction with the attached unaudited condensed financial statements, and with the Company’s
audited financial statements and discussion for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2024.
Executive
Summary
The
Company’s performance in operations has remained steady through the three quarters of the current fiscal year with the third quarter
dipping slightly in sales over the second quarter of the current fiscal year. This is mainly due to the fact that our business is tied
to the housing market and the winter months usually show a slowdown. Opportunities include keeping up with business growth and finding
ways to get our products out to our customers in a timelier manner. One way we are doing this is by looking into more automation. We
also continue to look at businesses that might be a good fit to purchase. We also continue to work on new products that will be a good
fit for our industry and business. Challenges in the coming months include getting products out to customers in a timely manner and dealing
with the ongoing effects of inflation. Management continues to work at keeping operations flowing as efficiently as possible with the
hopes of getting the facilities running leaner and more profitable than ever before.
Results
of Operations
●
Net
sales were $4,912,000 for the quarter ended January 31, 2025, which is an 8.94% decrease from the corresponding quarter last year.
Year-to-date net sales were $16,306,000 as of January 31, 2024, which is a 0.81% increase from the same period last year. The decrease
in sales in the current quarter is a result of our seasonal slow-down during the winter months, the lingering effects of inflation,
and some uneasiness that has been felt from the presidential election, especially regarding possible tariffs. We continue to operate
our business with our ongoing commitment to outstanding customer service and our ability to customize products.
●
Cost
of goods sold was 53.22% of net sales for the quarter ended January 31, 2025 and was 50.69% for the same quarter last year. Year-to-date
cost of goods sold was 51.20% of net sales for the current nine months and 50.36% for the corresponding nine months last year. The
current quarter and year-to-date cost of goods sold percentages have risen to be just outside Management’s goal of keeping
labor and other manufacturing expenses at less than 50%. This is due to increases in wages and material costs. Management continues
to work with and train employees to work more efficiently. Management offset a portion of these added expenses by implementing a
5% price increase effective February 1, 2025.
20
●
Operating
expenses decreased by $40,000 for the quarter as they increased by $148,000 for the nine months ended January 31, 2025, compared
to the corresponding periods last year. When comparing percentages in relation to net sales, the operating expenses for the quarter
ended January 31, 2025, were 22.43% of net sales compared to 21.17% of net sales for the same quarter the prior year. For year-to-date
numbers, operating expenses were 21.49% and 20.75% of net sales for the nine months ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
The Company has been able to keep the operating expenses at less than 25% of net sales for many years; however, the actual dollar
amount increase for the year-to-date numbers is due to increased commission amounts, related to increased sales, and additional labor
costs related to wage increases.
●
Income
from operations for the quarter ended January 31, 2025, was $1,196,000, a 21.21% decrease from the corresponding quarter last year,
which had income from operations of $1,518,000. Income from operations for the nine months ended January 31, 2025, was $4,453,000,
which is a 4.73% decrease from the corresponding nine months last year, which had income from operations of $4,674,000.
●
Other
income and expenses for the quarter ended January 31, 2025, shows income of $1,065,000, which is a $2,264,000 decrease from the corresponding
quarter last year, which had income of $3,329,000. Conversely, there is an increase of $1,112,000 in other income for the year-to-date
numbers. Most of the activity in these accounts consists of investment interest, dividends, real gains or losses on sale of investments,
and unrealized gains or losses on equity securities. The main reason for the decrease in the current quarter is the unrealized gain
and loss on equity securities. The Company is at the mercy of the stock market when it comes to these figures. The main reason for
the increase in the year-to-date numbers is that the Company has been able to sell investments for gains during this period, as compared
to losses for the same period last year.
●
Overall,
net income for the quarter ended January 31, 2025, decreased $1,632,000, or 50.39%, from the same quarter last year. Conversely,
net income for the nine-month period ended January 31, 2025, increased $970,000, or 17.45%, from the same period in the prior year.
●
Earnings
per common share for the quarter ended January 31, 2025, were $0.33 per share and $1.33 per share for the year-to-date numbers. EPS
for the quarter and nine months ended January 31, 2024, were $0.66 per share and $1.13 per share, respectively.

as of January 31, 2025.

New
Product Development
The
Company and its engineering department continue to develop enhancements to product lines, develop new products which complement existing
products, and look for products that are well suited to our distribution network and manufacturing capabilities. Items currently in the
development process include:
●
Explosion
proof contacts that will be UL listed for hazardous locations. There has been demand from our customers for this type of high security
magnetic reed switch.
●
The
Company is developing magnetic contacts which are listed under UL 634 Level 2. These sensors are for high security applications such
as government buildings, military use, nuclear facilities, and financial institutions.
●
Production
has begun on our updated small profile glass break detector and an expansion of the GR3045 panic switch to include single-pull, double-throw
(SPDT) versions, latching and non-latching with LED indicator lights.
●
Research
is being done on programmable temperature and humidity sensors with built-in hysteresis, a miniature profile overhead door contact
based on our popular 4532 series, and a brass water valve shut-off system.
●
Wireless
technology is a main area of focus for product development. We are considering adding wireless technology to some of our current
products. A wireless contact switch is in the final stages of development.
Other
Information
In
addition to researching and developing new products, management is always open to the possibility of acquiring a business or product
line that would complement our existing operations. Due to the Company’s strong cash position, management believes this could be
achieved without the need for outside financing. The intent is to utilize the equipment, marketing techniques and established customers
to deliver new products and increase sales and profits.
There
are no known seasonal trends with any of GRI’s products since we sell to distributors and OEM manufacturers. Our products are tied
to the housing industry and will fluctuate with building trends.
